ssssssshhh...bottom pix is a spy shot of the new louboutin store being built in the miami design district.yeah, that's the home of marni, michael's exchange and pacific time.stay tuned...

moi? first season thomas wylde black leather studded moto jacket with paula's signature skull print lining the jacket.i turned up the cuffs to show the skull print which lines the insides of the jacket.i actually bought this at the secret l'eclaireur store in paris as they were unpacking the shipment.the SAs were thrilled by my reaction and delight when i explained that the entire first season line was sold out across the pond.

don't you love when you unexpectedly find something you really wanted, or didn't even know you really wanted it, until you saw it irl?

ok readers, this is a special scorpio repost so you all can enjoy some magic on my birthday.who doesn't need a little magic?this is a pix of sean's interpretation of traditional baked alaska. it is a chocolate pound cake layered with mango sorbet and vanilla ice cream and then topped with home made meringue and lit on fire after drenching it in brandy.

d. captured the cake's aura in this pix. the color represents violet, the seventh chakra , the psychic energy chakra and the crown chakra.

being a reiki master, (really) i programmed the pix to contain positive and protective energy to those who make a wish with good intentions while looking at it.

and now the fun part, send this thread in my blog to 5 more people after you have made your wish so they can look at it, and make a good intentions wish too!

and for each additional 5 people you send this thread to, you will increase your chances of having your wish fulfilled.

remember when you send positive energy, you will get it back five fold.(just click on the envelope at the end of the thread to send an email link of post)

be patient, the spiritual universe does not operate on the same time clock as we do...

just make a wish and send the thread on with positive intentions. then relax and enjoy the magic...

oh, and be sure to report back with comments of how it is going for you...no cynics allowed please.negative energy has a nasty way of returning right back to the person who sends it.

i am so missing true blood. i caught an epsisode of the tv series, vampire diaries.what's up with that?how diluted can vampire lore get?these vampires drink coffee! (sign me up if you get to drink coffee for all eternity)and they can hang out in the daylight bc they have special rings.?ok...eric, bill, come back soon.

hello all, it's scorpio time.here is a repeat post i did about the scorpio and the frog.and if you are a scorpio, let me know and happy birthday.

i am wearing ugo cacciatori's scorpion necklace. i saw it in paris and just had to have it. you know what i mean? ugo designed the piece originally for his son. steve tyler has been photographed wearing it. anyway, i get approached by a lot of people telling me they like my necklace. question two is invariably, are you a scorpio? uh, that would be a yes. and my question to them is, are you?and usually, the answer is yes. hmmmm. btw, ugo, did NOT do a zodiac series. just this scorpion on a leather cord. perfect. and the tail is sharp and it moves....

you all know the scorpion and frog fable?if so, stop reading now and good night.and for those curious readers,

the scorpion needed a lift across the lake and asked frog for the favor.frog said if he did that scorpion would sting him and he would die. scorpion replied that he would not sting frog because then they would both die because scorpion could not swim.so frog said ok, and half way across the lake, scorpion stings frog.frog asked scorpion why he did that because now they would both die.scorpion replied, i could not help it. it is my nature.

it is my nature. why did i buy those loubs when my credit cards were screaming? it is my nature.why did i spend another three hours surfing on the computer when i should have been doing work? it is my nature.

ok, let's hear yours. i know you've got one. and you don't have to be a scorpio to understand the story.hurts so good.
